Very nice one, couldn't stop giggling: "Popper tells us how science should be done while Kuhn tells us how it is done."

The above is now a commentary of a commentary of a commentary. Curios? Go there: https://tritonstation.com/2026/03/10/paradigm-shifts-in-modern-astrophysics/

Nice read again from Triton Station.

"... that perhaps the reason we have to invoke the twin tooth fairies of dark matter and dark energy is to get FLRW to approximate some deeper, underlying theory.

"It is challenging to refrain from nerding out at great length over many of the details on display here."

says Stacy McGaugh in his recent blog post about new JWST data and then provides a wonderfully accessible explanation of a spectrum of light that travelled the universe for about 12 billion years.

And as usual he explains how this does not fit well to Dark Matter.😀

Very readable blog about cosmology with some surprisingly easy to understand "back of the envelope" calculations about the boundary conditions under which galaxies may form.

New blog entry from Stacy McGaugh were he relates the pains of overcoming the geocentric world model to the pains science may need to endure to re-consider the decisions that led to dark matter rather than something inspired by MOND.
